I am trying to express bottom SQL statement in DAX:
Table.[ACCOUNTNO] not like '%[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ]%'
I tried with

Table.[ACCOUNTNO] not like '%[A-Z]%' is enough,

I ended up finding solution by creating a separate Char table.

I have attached PBIX file here:
So, I am not sure why it would not calculate this part correctly:
If this DAX formula works, it should generate total of 8074.

$1,086.00 |
$736.00 |
$337.00 |
Currently, it shows 0.
I am wondering if this is something to do with data type.
Currently, in PBI file, ACCOUNTNO is in "text" data type.
Thanks for help.
I was looking at the Pbix file, but I guess I am trying to figure out DAX from where I have left off (expression like: not ( CONTAINSSTRING( 'Table'[ACCOUNTNO], "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" ).
This is what I have so far.
Calculate
(
sum (Table[AMOUNT]),
filter (Table, Table[CLASSID] = "100"),
filter (Table, left('Table'[ACCOUNTNO],1) IN {"4", "5"} ) ,
filter (Table, not ( CONTAINSSTRING( 'Table'[ACCOUNTNO], "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ")))
)
I am still not getting the expected value (matching with my SQL's output from SQL query below):
select
sum ( [AMOUNT] )
from [dbo].[Table]
where [CLASSID] in ('100')
and left([ACCOUNTNO],1) in ('4', '5')
and [ACCOUNTNO] not like '%[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ]%'
@JustinDoh1 , This seem file, where are using this like
if (not ( CONTAINSSTRING( 'Table'[ACCOUNTNO], "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" )) , "A", "B")
or
calculate(sum(Table[Value]), filter(Table, not ( CONTAINSSTRING( 'Table'[ACCOUNTNO], "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" )) )
Thanks for help.
Does bottom DAX expression look ok?
Somehow, I am getting the same amount as the amount I validate result from SQL.
Calculate(
sum (Table[AMOUNT]),
filter(
Table,
Table[CLASSID] = "100" &&
(left('Table'[ACCOUNTNO],1) IN {"4", "5"}) &&
not ( CONTAINSSTRING( 'Table'[ACCOUNTNO], "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" ))
)
